That such a cloyingly bland movie is getting and R in the USA only comes to show how scary things are in the country when it comes to the meddling morals of puritanism in matters of art and free speech.

Australia and the US have censorship boards that are afraid of nudity, so I'm guessing the stripper in the sex shop and the imagined orgasm montage were enough to warrant it for them. It looks to be M in Australia, which is 12 rated. So roughly the same as PG-13/the UK 12A.

It's 15 in the UK, which is better than R rated but 12A would've made more sense.
